This paper presented pattern synthesis using the Induced EMF Method and a Genetic Algorithm (GA). A cosine shaped main beam has been chosen as desired pattern. This technique is suitable for 3D antenna arrays where the position of each element is in various configurations. For 700 generations and penalty constant is 0.05, the GA converges rapidly u

The purpose of this study was to gain an increased understanding on the quality aspects of neighbourhood green open spaces among Malaysian park users’. Hence, this research explores the causal relationship between, Quality green open spaces (QGOS), Use patterns (U), Needs (ND), Preferences (PR) and Overall satisfaction (OS) towards achieving a Qu

Plants leaves of Coleus amboinicus from Indonesia (CAL-I) and from Malaysia, Coleus aromaticus (CAT-M), Pogostemon cablin (PC-M), Coleus blumei–red leaves (CBR-M), Coleus amboinicus– (CAL-M) Coleus blumei –purple leaves (CBP-M) were collected, freeze dried and extracted with aqueous methanol. The biological activity in vitro, in relation to t

This project presents the design, working principle, simulation results and analysis of a sub-nanosecond pulse generator. This design is a mix of devices and ideas derived from contemporary reported works with result showing up ringing both at the leading and trailing ends of the pulseUltra-wide-band modulation (UWB) modulation techniques for signa

This study validates the use pattern scales of park users' for Neighbourhood Parks context in Malaysian residential area. Samples of 414 daily park users in two neighbourhood parks in the Klang Valley area were achieved. The measures on use pattem were developed using three use pattern scales which are activities, passive activity and active ac

The behavioral approach energy conservation is the latest dimension among others (design and technology) to receive attention. This is logically methodical because, the undaunted challenges of energy resources exploitation (i.e. resource depletion, climate change and environmental pollution/ degradation) still remain a menace in spite of the immens

Islam views the family as a very important institution that should be protected from any element that may weaken it. If the institution cracks or is not stable, it will have a direct impact on society at large. The increase in social problems and criminal activities are among the direct results of unstable marriages. On the other hand, the trend to

BACKGROUND: Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is common but often underdiagnosed in children. The Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire developed by University of Michigan, USA (English UM PSQ) has high sensitivity and specificity in identifying children with sleep-disordered breathing. This study aimed to translate and adapt the English UM PSQ into Malay l

A new portable solar generator has been developed to generate electricity. It has the potential to replace petrol generator, widely used by peddlers at night markets (pasar malam). Conventional generators are heavy, oily, have high maintenance and use fossil fuel to generate electricity. The solar generator can generate 20 Watts of electricity. Thi

The similarities found in the architectural styles of the Malay and Malay-Muslim traditional houses as architectural heritage built form in the Southeast Asian region have triggered many theories among architectural writers and critics of it origin. This article intends to discuss selected theories and review some examples of architectural forms fo
